If you want to get away from the hustle of the main town, this quaint hostel is a great find. It features a charmingly rustic, unapologetic vibe and covers all the basic amenities. Just note that if you’re looking for a place to take a quick dip (the beachline is ugly and full of trash) this isn't it, so you might want to look elsewhere. The highlights are definitely the staff as they are incredibly friendly, especially Jayjay. Kudos! thank you for the complementary breakfast.

Staff are all approachable and the rooms are clean. When we checked in, bathroom lights are not working so they allow us to move rooms. The atmosphere is good. Breakfast is great! But when booking, consider that it is far from restaurants and dining places, but tuktuks are available on the c-road.

We booked for a Deluxe room, not that fancy kind of accomodation but it's comfortable to stay but note There's a Curfew on ther facility they open at 6am to 10pm. Wifi signal is Strong and it is free to use, Very Cold AC, neat and clean bedings. If your looking for a place that is quite and peaceful then this place is for you. My Over all rate for our tow days and One night stay it's 8/10. Definitely recommend.

We had a lovely stay at La Vida Hostel. Place is in a quiet neighborhood, just walking distance from the beach. Staff were very accommodating. Loved the fully equipped kitchen, perfect for those who wish to prepare their own meals after a long travel. Wish they could extend the curfew tho to 12mn instead of 10pm.
